+### `Path getEnclosingRoot(Path p)`
+
+This method is used to find a root directory for a path given. This is useful
for creating
+staging and temp directories in the same root directory. There are constraints
around how
+renames are allowed to atomically occur (ex. across hdfs volumes or across
encryption zones).
+
+#### Preconditions
+
+if no root path is found: raise IOException
+No root path would be found only if there is no mount point for the given path
+
+
+#### Postconditions
+
+The path return will not be null
